Reacting to the shocking result that the hosts Russia eliminated Spain in the round of 16 in this years world cup. Favourites Spain couldn't get through losing on penalties meaning Russia are into a world cup quarterfinal were they will take on Croatia. Again another penalty shootout which was filled with drama. This world cup seems to be the tournament of the underdog with all the top teams going out early. Will we get more shocks as favourites Brazil take on Mexico? Finishing off with Belgium vs Japan. Can't be anymore shocks, can there? 

With Argentina & Portugal losing in the first round of 16 games, Messi & Ronaldo are out of this years world cup in the early stages. The two sides don't have enough quality within the side to get through. Both sides being one man teams can't defeat much more balanced sides throughout the side with well class players themselves. Is this Messi & Ronaldo's last world cup? With Uruguay & France looking strong, predicting who will end up on top, making it into the semifinals in a very tight game. Loads of world class goals this tournament to review, with a new kid on the block ready to take over the tournament & world. Is Mbappe the best player in the world now? If not, how long will it take him? I'm also looking at the upcoming games between Spain vs Russia & Croatia vs Denmark. Will the favourites win or will we get another shock? 

Will England top their group or play for second????? World Cup 2018 predictions

Reviewing the last games of Group G & H. Should England of played their starting 11 to top the group or did we want to finish second? Then once finding out who went through & placing where, predicting which team will win, making it into the quarter finals. Podcast reviewing & predicting the 2018 Russia World Cup 

Final games of group A & B have finished. Uruguay top the group with hosts Russia following them, even though they lost 3-0 in their final game. Also group B had loads of drama with the group table changing multiple times & VAR having huge debate on whether its working or not. Spain where 3rd in the group getting knocked out, then 1 minute later topping the group knocking Iran out & sending Portugal second to face Uruguay. Who else will be going through the group & will VAR play a part in the decision? 

Looking at all the possible outcomes for England from whether to top the group or finish second? To who could their possible opponents be? Belgium & England looking the two dominate teams in the first few games of this tournament. Mexico having a great opportunity to top the group, a group that has Germany in. Have Sweden killed their chances of going through to the knockout stages of the world cup? Also looking at the tough group H, which anyone is still able to qualify in. Finishing off with my thoughts on the final match day games of group A & B. Pretty much knowing who is through but predicting who will finish where.   

Reviewing the games of Group D & E in this years world cup while predicting who will get through in Group F & G. Finding out that England have a great chance of getting into the world cup semi finals by not winning their group. By Germany coming second in the group as losing to Mexico & Brazil managing to top theirs, they will face in the round of 16 & possibly taking on the winners of group G (England's group) in the quarter finals. Meaning by finishing second England can get to the semi finals without taking on the worlds greatest sides. They still have to win those games but have a better chance if it works out like this. COME ON ENGLAND 

Looking at how the teams in Group C of this years world cup got on. France beating Peru & Denmark drawing with Australia. Giving France one of the qualification places, leaving Denmark & Australia to the last game week to battle it out for the final spot as Peru are now eliminated. We also looked at what is going wrong with Argentina as they lost 3-0 to Croatia. With the little man Messi not showing up to the big stage again. Do Croatia have a chance this tournament? Or is this just a poor Argentina team? Finishing off by looking at the upcoming games of group D, Iceland vs Nigeria & group E games of Brazil vs Costa Rica & Serbia vs Switzerland.Â

Going through all the games that happened in the first match day of the world cup. Looking how Russia have shocked everyone by scoring 8 in their first 2 games. The greatest game of the world cup so far, Spain 3-3 Portugal (Ronaldo). Cristiano Ronaldo taking centre stage once again with a hat-trick & beating Messi in the mini battle that everyone compares them too each game. England getting a late minute winner, (It's coming home). With Germany & Brazil under preforming, getting no wins & struggling to get out of their groups. Then looking towards the games that our happening with Group C & D.
